SCDMV Form DL-127. Route Restricted Driver's License Application

This form is used by individuals who have medical conditions or disabilities that require them to have a route-restricted driver's license. A route-restricted license allows the individual to drive only within a specific designated area or route, typically to accommodate certain medical treatments or appointments.

The main purpose of this form is to apply for a route-restricted driver's license and provide supporting documentation regarding the medical condition or disability. This form helps the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV) evaluate whether an individual qualifies for a route-restricted license.

The form consists of sections for the applicant's personal information, medical condition details, and supporting documentation requirements. The applicant is also required to provide information about their current driver's license and any previous restrictions or suspensions.

When filling out this form, it is important for the applicant to accurately provide all necessary information about their medical condition and follow the documentation requirements specified. It may be necessary to provide medical records or a physician's statement to support the application.

An example of when this form is necessary is when a person with a medical condition that affects their ability to drive long distances needs to apply for a route-restricted license. This allows them to continue driving within a limited area for essential medical appointments.

An alternative form to consider is the SCDMV Form DL-127A, which is used for renewing a route-restricted driver's license. The DL-127 specifically focuses on the initial application for a route-restricted license.
